Define Command-Line Options for HTTPS Configuration Files

The local-configuration.yaml includes the https-in and https-out options used to define the parameters for the license server’s HTTPS communications with FlexNet Embedded clients and FlexNet Operations. These two options replace the “server” and “client” HTTPS configuration files used in previous license server versions. However, you can still use these configuration files (instead of the https-in and https-out options) by providing command-line options in the flexnetls.conf unit file to identify the paths to these files.

To identify the path for an HTTPS configuration file

Use the instructions in Edit the .conf File Manually to edit (or add) the Environment="OPTIONS=" line in the flexnetls.conf unit file to specify one or both command-line options:

•

To specify the command-line option that identifies the path and name for the “server” configuration file, enter the following:

Environment="OPTIONS=--https-server-configuration filePathAndName" 

•

To specify the command-line option that identifies the path and name for the “client” configuration file path, enter the following:

Environment="OPTIONS=--https-client-configuration filePathAndName" 

•

To specify both command-line options, enter the following:

Environment="OPTIONS=--https-server-configuration filePathAndName --https-client-configuration filePathAndName"
